    Agree we aren’t playing the same dudes from a coaching perspective but other than Djitte and I guess Hoesen, we have the same dudes in the attack. I don’t think the inability to score is due to missing Cascante and Gabrielsen but maybe I am underestimating Ring’s importance to the midfield. Clearly Wolff did too though given he benched him game 1.
  2. Apropos of nothing other than continuing the shitting on the sequel trilogy upthread, I watched Explorers with my kids the other night (‘80s movie) and the cheesy space movie character at the drive in was Starkiller. Jesus, JJ. You weren’t even trying. Back on topic - I still think it’s the armorer now that we know the other Mandalorians weren’t the ones that busted out Fring, but it was his stormtroopers in beskar. There is a scene where they show the armorer flying back to the fleet outside the atmosphere of Amanda lore but nothing else. It was an unneeded scene if they weren’t going to show her reconnecting with the fleet, unless….. I’ll probably be wrong.

    The “Jon Gallagher” sounds like.
  4. I read the plot of A Serbian Film online when it was brought up in a conversation like this and felt awful for days and wish I hadn’t. I am not sure I could be friends with someone that actually watched it.

    Holy shit Zardes is just horrible.

    I lasted longer than most but this is the same attack that we had through September last year with two differences. Ring having to play center back and …. Rigoni. They need to run lineups out the next few weeks without Rigoni I don’t care if he is a DP and do the same with Zardes.
  7. First time I’ve ever pulled two off like this…. Wordle 665 2/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  8. Fucking autocorrect. Trying again…. So I was watching Season 1 Ep 8 at end when aromorer is piling up Mando helmets and in watching the end of that last episode it seems more and more like she is the spy…….…… ……. then she wastes a 1/2 dozen stormtroopers after Mando and crew left. So who knows.

  10. I remember on the old site someone posted the BPD radio of the cops closing in on second brother in the boat. So we are listening live. Sounded like a cliche movie with Boston Pd complaining about the feds getting in their way etc.
  11. There is a shitload of Sumner Redstone here too. Including the fact that he’s dead.
  12. Beef seems more like Dead to Me but much much more grounded in reality. Only through 4 but seems to be backing characters into a corner throughout season for a final explosion to happen. Dave Choh is hilarious. Perfect role for him. Ali Wong can get it.
  13. What’s live Miami money line because I think it’s good value?
  14. It doesn’t help between unapologetic extreme gerrymandering and the fact that 35-40% of the Texas electorate’s first priority is to vote for God and/or white supremacy over their own economic and social self-interest and it’s a pretty tough hill to fucking climb. It’s going to take some time.
  15. Between gin and syndication, I think they'll be OK.
  16. It really sucks that one, if not the, major downfall of this country will be an intentional misinterpretation of an amendment in order to suit the needs of a very specific lobbying group, leading to one party benefitting and realizing the idiots that fall for it might win them elections, causing said party to quadruple down on the same intentional misinterpretation because they know it delivers votes, even though it kills children.
  17. Just saw this today (although it's from Friday). This is a world class exercise in obtuseness from WSJ. Kicked back La-Z-Boys, Warden Norton, and coat hangers are like, "Yo, Journal, those are some obtuse angles you are taking!" https://www.wsj.com/articles/clarence-thomas-supreme-court-propublica-harlan-crow-1c4c2f41?st=i664h3xubk7hi19
  18. Enjoying it, but some of the homages are bordering on rip off between Lost (polar bear/white moose) and Twin Peaks (Bob/No Eyed Man). Hell --- there is one theory that the mossy tree is a hatch to something underground and that's where Javy is. Shauna is clearly referencing something that we haven't seen yet in her threatening monologue to the chop shop owner. In any event, it's entertaining and often very funny. I expect Jeff is going to be prime suspect for the cop now. I also expect Nat/Tai to find out Jeff was behind the blackmail at some point. I thought it was going to happen in Misti's Cyrano interrogation, but they didn't get that far. .... also, is nose ring girl Shauna's, maybe?
  19. I think Fennessy predicted it on The Ringer that it would be this episode or the next based on the tour de force Cox was allowed to give in the last episode. In retrospect, the ATN speech had a Dexter Scoey feel to it.
  20. Same same. Took the kids. They loved it. Peaches Peaches songnkilled them. The Blue Shell scene got me. Before that koopa even said anything I’m like pointing “Oh shit! Blue shell! They are fucked!” Without the cursing of course. Someone school me on what the nihilistic glowy character in the cage was.

    If next week goes bad there has to be a shakeup. But shit we aren’t deep enough to do it. I don’t know what to do about the back line. The depth is abominable and something we all saw coming the moment Gabrielsen decided not to come back, if not sooner. The new Finn is OK and Ring has performed admirably but he needs to be in Pereirra’s spot because Perreira is going to fuck up defending at least twice a half while also doing a couple of cool things each half. I’d be willing to give slow old Romana run to let Ring shore up the defensive midfield. Have Ring play the Adams-like role and Teen Wolff the Musah-like role. Would like to sit Rigoni (duh) and run Bruin and Finlay out there - maybe even two strikers with Bruin and Urruti to change things up. Fagundez has reverted to Revs Fagundez and I think he misses Gallagher on his side. We need him to figure it out. Would like to see Djeffal get some run as well. I liked him in the Colorado game. Unless we are extremely lucky when June transfer window hits, there isn’t any room to maneuver to get talent because we have two wasted DP spots. Ugh.
  22. The reason nothing will happen is because the house has to impeach first and that ain’t happening given the Cheneys and Kinzigers of this world are gone. I imagine someone will put up articles of impeachment but they will get voted down. And no way senate convicts. So instead, you ask every R and D on every show through 2024 election whether what Thomas did was impeachable, if so, why, and if not, why not. I do wonder if there are othe civil/criminal laws broken here that put Crow at risk and could generate discovery and get people under oath in depos like the Dominion case. probably not.
  23. So which game was that loosely based on where a team got 3 reds? I presume there is some basis here like there was for the Zava storyline and how they appear to be copying Leicester a bit as well.
  24. Savannah this morning on Today show when Trump’s lawyer told her the payments weren’t campaign related: “So his argument is they were made so Melania wouldn’t find out?” Lol. Cold. And c’mon. That doesn’t hold water, Savannah. We all know Melania was well aware.
  25. I also think he knows they are right and the fuse is about to run out on Kerry and a hard conversation is coming. That scene after the karaoke bar you could see steak coming out of her ears. And they don’t say it out loud but the kids getting that video means it has been passed around for giggles. So in a way, Greg is not lying. It has been focus grouped.
